If you’ve chosen Canada as your destination for your education, you’re a part of the growing number of international students in Canada. If you’re filing your taxes as an international student, keep reading to get all the information you need. Full-time students are not exempt from paying income tax in Canada. If you received any income from summer jobs or part-time jobs, you need to file an income tax return. The federal tuition tax credit is one of the top tax credits for post-secondary students. Even if you aren’t reporting any income on your tax return, you can use this credit to claim the eligible tuition fees for post-secondary level courses. When you repay your student loans, you are able to claim the interest as a non-refundable tax credit to help reduce any taxes owed. You may also claim moving expenses to take courses as a full-time student in a post-secondary program, but only if you have taxable scholarship income (which is not usually the case).

# 35 Are foreign students in Canada eligible for residency? Are they eligible for all relevant tax credits? So, if a foreign student meets the Canadian residency requirements then they are considered to be a tax resident of Canada and are eligible for all relevant tax credits. As a refresher, tax residency in Canada is assessed based on Primary and Secondary residential ties. Foreign students that are considered Canadian residents for tax purposes are eligible for all relevant tax credits (for example, tuition tax credits). The tax credits available to non-residents are more complicated and I suggest you go to the CRA guide (link in references) for further details. So remember, if you are an international student who is considered a resident in Canada for tax purposes, you are eligible for all the tax credits available to a Canadian resident student who was born in Canada. * Article – “Taxes for international students studying in Canada.” (Author: Government of Canada).
